Recent Solvang Reviews

A group of friends (8 total) rented Jay's house for a weekend and we had an amazing time. The house and yard (with gigantic garden full of fruits and vegetables) was perfect for us. Close enough to Solvang and Los Olivos for easy taxi rides to attractions, and right down the street from El Rancho Market. The house is as described and better. Everyone had good nights sleep on comfortable beds, and the size of the house is perfect for medium size group gatherings. The kitchen is large enough for several people to cook at once, and there is plenty of space to spread out between the living room and the lovely backyard.
Jay was so accommodating and nice. We were very welcomed, and he was communicative and near-by if we needed anything. I've rented several houses through VRBO, and I have to say this was definitely one of the more cared for places I've ever stayed in and certainly the nicest homeowner! It felt like a home, not a house filled with discarded furniture, like so many rental houses do.
The cost of the rental was comparable, and in many cases, less expensive than renting hotel rooms and definitely worth it, especially for a group that wants to spend quality time together. Highly recommended.

Our Group consisted of four adults and one teenager. The sleeping arrangements were perfect for us with our daughter using the twin that was in our room that also had a queen. My parents had their own room and bath at the other end of the house. The bathrooms were large with a nice offering of sample size shampoos and lotions. Dinning room had a large table to accommodate large gatherings. Kitchen was extremely well stocked, the only thing we couldn't find were steak knifes. We did buy a few miss matched ones at a thrift store and left them. The house was nicely decorated for Christmas including a tree and lights. My only complaint about the décor was the furniture in the living room looked attractive but was not very comfortable.
The back yard is large, private and full of unique and eclectic playful décor items hidden in the trees and bushes. One of my favorite memories is sitting in the backyard at night with the fire pit going and a big beautiful chandelier lit hanging from a old tree. We made friends with a black kitten who loved being around the fire pit. Plenty of red oak wood was available for the fire pit and live fire grill to cook on. The house is located in a very quiet area with a supermarket about 10 minutes driving distance. A miniature horse ranch just minutes away and a miniature donkey farm walking distance. A bottle of local Clairmont Farms lavender lotion in the bathroom prompted a short trip to the local farm to purchase my own along with pure oils. Chumash Casino is about 15 minutes away offering free play money to Los Angeles visitors who sign up for their playing club, I was given $100.00 in free slot play money (still Lost:( )
Owner Henry was quick to respond to any questions I had.
We would definitely recommend this house for a family or two couples looking for a nice getaway.
We arrived the Day after Christmas
